IN OTHER WORDS

In Other Words is a project that came together in four parts, each release containing four songs. While stylistically drawing from a different set of influences for each release, what was consistent was the manipulation of recorded vocals from my friends Dessa, Jessie, and Aby. The idea for this record was to create songs that would typically be lyrically driven pop songs, but use voice in a way without further context than that of an instrument.

One of the inspirations for making this record was a recording by Adriano Celentano, an Italian singer/composer who has had an extensive music career since the 60’s. In 1972 he released a song titled “Prisencolinensinainciusol,” which was written to mimic the way English sounds to non-English speakers despite being entirely gibberish, because he wanted to make an “American” style pop song.
